  What is truth?

  ah!

  yes, that remark made by pilate after pilate had asked jesus wether he was a king.

  ( john 18:37-38 ).. how would you answer the question according to what we know from the bibles definition, and how the faithful and discreet slave have endeavored to give us spiritual food at the proper time?.

  hi, anyone have any holiday plans for the summer?.

  we hope to go to canada to visit relatives and maybe go down to san-diego to take the kids round the zoo & sea-world.

  went there a couple of years ago on business and it was incredible!.

  Forum plans and policy

  by Simon in

  in case anyone is wondering about our registration policy:.

  i don't intend to turn people away who want to register and post or make ultra-strict registration procedures because i honestly don't think that they work.

  if i were to ask for names of congregations or presiding overseers then i have no real way of checking if they are correct.

  The three wise men

  by Simon in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  just a thought.... looking through the greatest man book, something just occurred to me which i can't recall has ever been highlighted (but please correct me).. i always thought it a bit strange that jehovah allowed the three pagan astrologers to find jesus especially as they were obviously guided to him by satan's star (remember they were led to herod first who wanted to kill the messiah).

  what purpose did it serve?.

  well, a few pages earlier in tgm book, we see mary presenting a dove as a sin offering at the temple - this was the cheapest offering that was acceptable which must have meant that they were pretty poor at the time.. shortly after the three wise men visited the family had to flee to egypt when herod started to kill all the young boys in an attempt to kill jesus.. what would they need to travel and live as exiles for a couple of years?.

  Hey, where did all the forums go?

  by Simon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i decided to limit the number of forums until the number of visitors has built up a bit...otherwise it will be like having a party in a 200 room mansion - no one will ever meet!.

  please let me know if there are any forums that you'd like to see available.
